Шаблон:Use dmy dates The Hamilton Olympic Club (HOC) is the oldest track and field organization in Canada. It was established in 1926 by a group of local businessmen. Many HOC athletes have competed at the provincial, national and Olympic level, including Percy Williams, Don McFarlane, Johnny Miles and Ray Lewis.[1][2]
The club hosted an international club meet in 1929 against a combined team from Oxford and Cambridge University, with the English team winning by a margin of two points.[3]
